Character is dying for no reason after the .50 update

[killerbyte12 29]

I seen a facebook post warning people that after the .50 update characters have been dying for no reason. I just hoped it wouldn't happen to me... but it just did. Was just looting a high rise then out of no where I got the messages

"my leg hurts"

"my leg is broken"

Then you are dead...

 

I had the character alive for sooo long.... :(

Australian internet lag issues? Blame Abbot. Sounds like desync causing character to fall into the floor.

This desync/latency related death bug as been there for awhile and isn't really related to .50. Personally I've only experienced it once while climbing a ladder. Once in 600+ hours of gameplay so it's not a concern to me, but it seems like a lot of players having it occur more often than others had high ping, bandwidth or lag spikes.

 

R.I.P.  :(

It's not a new bug, It always happened to me when I had full gears...

Not new. This can happen just by hanging out on anywhere above ground level. Don't stay above ground level for extended periods of time.

Died this way multiple times, hell I died this way while running down the railroad track, for me it most frequently occurs on top of fire stations.
